About
I am currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Zoology at North Bengal Saint Xavier’s College, affiliated with the University of North Bengal, since February 4, 2025. In this role, I am dedicated to teaching and mentoring undergraduate students, delivering in-depth knowledge of biology and life sciences. My teaching philosophy centers on integrating the latest global scientific advancements into the curriculum, ensuring students receive a cutting-edge education aligned with their syllabus. Beyond the classroom, I am an accomplished researcher specializing in probiotics and metabolic disorders.
My expertise spans experimental biology, food processing, quality control, and drug research and development. My Ph.D. research explores the use of probiotic strains to improve metabolic health, yielding significant contributions through peer-reviewed publications, book chapters, and conference presentations. My academic and research excellence has earned me numerous prestigious accolades, including the 68th All India Rank in the Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) by CSIR-NET in 2019 and the Senior Research Fellowship (SRF) by CSIR-NET in 2021. I have also qualified for highly competitive examinations such as GATE (XL) twice (2017 & 2019), WB-SET by WBCSC in 2019, and TIFR/JGEEBILS GS in 2019, demonstrating my strong academic foundation. My global research engagement was recognized with the SERB-International Travel Grant Award (ITS) in 2023, while my ability to present complex scientific concepts effectively has been honored with the Outstanding Paper Presentation Award at the West Bengal State Science Congress in 2024 and the Best Paper Presentation Award at FAIE in 2024.
I am deeply passionate about science communication and public education, actively participating in academic events, mentoring students, and organizing seminars to promote scientific awareness and inspire a culture of learning.
